right: you need an index-file for your index-action (actions and views pair up) wrong: it has not to be identical to the layout-file.
try to put <%= yield %> into your layout instead of <%= render => :partial => @partial %> and change your index to Hello it's <%= Time.now %> in your controller just leave it like this def index end now, if you want to render a partial, do so by saying it for example in your view. if you put render :partial => foo in your controller, then by default layout => false is set. maybe i'm even mistaken somewhere, but anyhow i hope i could help. my suggestion: get hold of some rails basics. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
